PayPal chargebacks?

[SwiftSeller]

Hey, I'm back from a LONNNNNNNG absence from the "market scene" here on sythe. I'm trying to figure out this new/old idea i've seen going around.

I remember last year the only way not to be charged back was to claim and cancel.

Recently im seeing alot of "GIFT" payments being acceptable. Is that because these cant be charged back?

Someone please explain the "GIFT" method. Thank you.

gift usto be unable to be claimed back unless you call up paypal or your bank etc. but paypal nerfed them and you can claim it back now.

summary: don't worry about it

^ Yes. I'm actually wondering the same thing now, is there a way to make the trade safe?

 

[SwiftSeller]

ok so now we're right back to claim and cancel only?

 

[SwiftSeller]

so the only way is claim and cancel still?

 

[FearitSelf.]

claim and cancel can be claimed back if they call up their credit card company

The Best 100% Fool Proof Method is - When they Send you the Payment...

Make them out in the receipt...

"This payment is for Virutal Goods Which I have Already Recivied"

This is 100% Un Take Back able!

R2pleasent use's it with ALL His Sales...

so basically just by typing that they've already recieved the items/services it binds them to it?

Yea that did help, exactly the answer I was looking for, Thank you.

 

Paypal gifts can easily be charged back if the person knows how.

No, he still has some chargebacks. For larger trades it's best to use WU, mail, etc.

Oh hmm, so PayPal is 100% unsafe afterall.

 

[Trip.Fagex]

Paypal always has flaws but its generally safe.

 

[SwiftSeller]

Well its only as safe as the 2 trading parties let it be.

 

[Trip.Fagex]

Well no shit. Usually if it's not a very well trusted member just make sure the money is coming from their actual balance and not through a card and you should be good. But always try to pick the higher repped to sell to.

 

[SwiftSeller]

Naturally. Well it gets harder to pick reputable members if you're doing pin sales. Most of the pin buyers make a sythe account just for that purchase.

Gifts CAN be charged back if the sender puts it as an unauthorized claim (meaning that someone 'hacked' them and sent you the cash).

Plus, Gift payments raise suspicion to Paypal often. I found that as a seller many of the gift payments sent to me were actually held temporarily by Paypal to do "investigations" and sometimes even put a Limitation on my account. At first they care less, but when the total transactions go 300$+ they start to get pussy, especially if you just joined.
